This is a very good recipe for rice pudding. The ratio of milk and rice is perfect for a thick and creamy pudding and the addition of custard is a nice change to the usual. My sis, my mum and me really enjoyed this tasty treat on a cold winters day. YUM! :)<br/>I used a little less custard and mine was of the thick kind, but other than that stuck to your recipe.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, Mandy!<br/>Made and reviewed for Aussie/NZ Recipe Swap #48 January 2010. -
I prepared this yesterday morning to have last night but it didn't eventuate but had tonight and was well enjoyed. I used doongara rice (diabetic friendly) and cooked the full 20 minutes (all milk absorbed) and it tasted cooked but once chilled it definately needed a little longer so will consider a 1/4 cup extra of milk (hi-lo) and cook an extra 5 minutes or as the DH said use a different rice. Served with fresh strawberries for 3 out of 4 and a dollop of cream. Thank you Mandy, made for Edition 5 - Make My Recipe - a game of tag. -
I loved it, DD liked it when it was still warm and DS doesn't eat rice at all, not even in pudding. Easy to make, i used strawberries and left out the cream as we're not too fond of it. Actually it's rather nice to have that whole bowl of pudding just for myself for a change, lol. Made for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers for ZWT4 -
This is great! I used Uncle Ben's Brown Rice cooked in 1/2 skim, 1/2 evaporated low fat milk. The custard was Fat Free White Chocolate Pudding. Finally, cinnamon was sprinkled on top and a mixture of raspberries and blackberries spooned over all. This would be even better with regular milk and custard. Made for ZWT4

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa.
Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks.
As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
